    Best quote from Fair Play: Revolutionizing Household Labor Division

    “

    Fairness isn't just about splitting things 50-50; it's about both people having equal opportunity to develop their full potential as human beings by protecting their 'Unicorn Space.' True partnership requires an equal distribution of mental responsibility, decision-making power, and the freedom to be fully present in your own life.
